@Korbett_Koselak @Stuckey2 You think maybe that’s because they are missing a first team AA in the post? We were very tough to guard with him down low.. without him we were probably a fringe tourney team if we’re being honest

@Stuckey2 Bama made a bunch of open threes and Tech went an entire half without getting an open shot. I'm all for shooting variance but none of the Tech guards could get two inches of space, that's not variance.
English
They went 19-44 from 3 and Tech went 4-26 and tech is the better shooting team. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves before even talking about 1 of 5 all Americans in the country who didn’t play.

@Stuckey2 Shitty ending but bama's guards absolutely mauled their guards tonight. I don't think Toppin would've mattered.

@samspiegs Coincidentally they lead the nation in NIL spend per player. Hmmm. Only way Tech can get em is to buy em
English
Texas Tech currently leads the country in average rating per commit (92.37) 🌵

@ISU_Clone2020 @Benikitty7 I don’t think anyone is in their feels now that JT is out but congrats on the win

“No charity points, nothin to make them feel good, fuck them”
English
@SmokyMtnDFS @DraftKings No shit. This is a common sense answer. Especially if they can WD after lock. So damn frustrating
English
So the tourney started and then Ryan Fox WD. @DraftKings it would be super easy for all of us with Fox to swap to anyone within salary constraints that hasnt teed off yet? Why cant we do that?
English
@SteveKBuchanan @LockedOnTech Hey old man, time to put the phone down. It’s passed you by
English
@TexasTechMBB JT Toppin being out for the rest of the year would be fucking cinematic 😂😂😂 you guys won’t win a game the rest of the year without him lmaoooooo
English
Donovan Atwell is one 3 from history 🔥
His 94th 3-pointer matches Cory Carr who's had the single-season record since 1996-97.
English
@SteveKBuchanan @LockedOnTech Ok? You asked how tech has lost 6 games and I answered your question. Teams change. Welcome to the meat of your schedule (0-2)
English
@JDHaney_ @LockedOnTech Overall record counts. Your answer is the basketball season version of the dog ate my homework.
English
I keep watching Texas Tech's JT Toppin believing his game doesn't translate to the next level. Except I watch JT Toppin in all of these high profile games vs guys who will be playing at the next level and he always delivers. At what point does intangible outweigh tangible?
English
English
@ClydeSmith33324 @Joseph_Duarte Obviously you haven't been watching for a while. 😄
English
Houston coach Kelvin Sampson: “I’ve said from Day 1, the best player in this league is (Texas Tech’s) J.T. Toppin.”
English
@SteveKBuchanan @LockedOnTech Been hurt all year. Been working with literally a 6 man rotation until the past few weeks. Different team
English
@HoopsVisionTTU @franfraschilla @TexasTechMBB I don’t know but will take an educated guess. He hasn’t played in what 2 months? We have Kansas in 48 hours. Would assume he gets 15/20 minutes Monday
English
@franfraschilla @TexasTechMBB Do you know why Luke bambgoye hasn’t played in the second half. We could really use him in the paint and on the boards
English
This is one of those five games a year that you play poorly and have to do everything you can to win. A loss is not going to crush @TexasTechMBB but it will be a hard lesson learned.
Fran Fraschilla@franfraschilla
This is the “psychology of the schedule” at work in Orlando. @TexasTechMBB coming off a huge win with a week to think about it, travels across the country and has a rivalry game with @KUHoops in 2 days. @UCF_MBB needing a huge @Big12Conference résumé win. The Red Raiders are playing in quicksand.
English
English
@ChrisYBaldwin @lackmeftwich806 @_KnowBuddyCares They go down after every conference win. Way to make something out of nothing.
English
Texas Tech students being let onto the floor after the No.12 Red Raiders' win over No, 6 Houston. Texas Tech wins rebounding battle 44-28 with UH big men in foul trouble.
English
@dellrakes44 @Aaron_Torres Going to give you a pass on this one since you’re a husker fan and this is the first year you’ve been relevant. In short, November games are meaningless
English
@Aaron_Torres Almost as good as the B1G. Tech 0-2 vs top big ten teams including a 30 point loss.
English
Watching the first five minutes of Texas Tech-Houston, it struck me:
Winning the Big 12 Tournament might be harder than winning the NCAA Tournament this year.
Houston. Texas Tech. Arizona. BYU. Kansas. Iowa State.
League is SO stacked this year 🗣️🗣️
English
@kimgbannister @Tony_Catalina @TechHoopsGuy Inefficient scorer that doesn’t guard. Not exactly what Gmac wants. Not to mention you already have two better guards that are on the smaller end
English
So apparently pop isaacs is coming off the bench at A&M and Darrion Williams is loafing it at nc state.
Grant mccasland might know a bit of ball.
English
@TechHoopsGuy FWIW, Pop is 4th on the team in minutes (21.5) and is averaging 10.4 points per game, eclipsing double figures 9 times, including scoring 21 against Auburn.
Telling people he’s coming off the bench is accurate but misleading.
English
LeJuan Watts saw this and took it very personally.
What a night for Texas Tech’s third star.
Evan Miyakawa@EvanMiya
BYU takes on Texas Tech on the road in under an hour in an awesome matchup. This is a game of stars. Texas Tech's duo (Anderson, Toppin) vs BYU's trio (Dybantsa, Saunders, Wright). My model has Texas Tech favored by just 0.6 points.
English
Sloppy second half for Texas Tech so far on both ends of the floor
English
@Hash73Hash @JarheadFrog Are you serious. No shits are given about the Alamo bowl
English
@JDHaney_ @JarheadFrog But you would rather scote nothing and be 1 and done? TCU was one and done with a Trophy!
English
TCU won the Fiesta Bowl against an undefeated Big 10 team, without spending $40+ million. Nobody forgot that. TCU receives credit nationally for that.
Tech outspent everybody and couldn't score 1 point against Oregon, a school that a G5 program scored 30+ on the week before.
EJ@EJ_whitley
@JarheadFrog No different the TCU in the natty. That was way more harmful then us losing in Orange bowl. Also, I would much rather win a he Big XII and lose in the CFP then be in the Alamo bowl
